DONOR IMPACT ON ADDICTION RESEARCH

Medical advances in cancer, heart disease, AIDS and numerous other diseases demonstrate a 1:1 correlation between research funding and cures. Your donation brings us one step closer to curing addiction.

Understanding how an individual’s unique genetic wiring makes them predisposed to substance use disorders helps create protocols to counter or avoid the influence.

Addiction is a multi-faceted problem that requires a multi-disciplined approach to a cure. You help fund a unique research lab network that combines brain, genetics and psychological advanced research.

While cancer, heart disease and other challenging health conditions garner significant private funding support (> $1B), there are virtually no private funding sources for addiction research. We need to change that so we can accelerate the drive to cures.
OUR SOLE FOCUS IS TO FUND RESEARCH AIMED AT FINDING A CURE FOR ALCOHOL AND DRUG ADDICTION. THROUGH YOUR GENEROSITY, OUR GRANTS HELP RESEARCHERS EXPLORE PROMISING AVENUES AND ADDRESS CHALLENGES TO FIND CURES TO THIS WIDESPREAD AND GROWING DISEASE.
